Description

An overview of Wikimedia Phabricator: What it is, what it can do, and how it can help you to find interesting stuff and projects to work on, to improve the code in our projects, to coordinate and organize stuff you work on, and to collaborate with others in software projects.

Come and see and ask any questions about Phabricator! :)

General information (if you want to take a look before or in the session): mw:Phabricator/Help and mw:Phabricator/Project management.

I started with these slides (needs a bit of updating, star icon, Phab logo, etc):
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Introduction-to-Phabricator-WikiCon-2016.pdf
Took about 30min.
Then answering discussing numerous questions (and greg helped with some input).
About 15-20 attendees.
Asked if the session was helpful at the end. Some people nodded.
Closing as resolved.

I wonder whether this is one of the basic documents that we should curate in the context of Onboarding New Developers.

Not directly, as some featured projects do not use Phabricator. I now linked to these slides from both the top of the Phab Help (diff) and from the top of mw:Phabricator which (including some subpages) needed a bit of cleanup. And then made mw:New_Developers once link to the Phab wiki page. Sufficient IMHO.
